Not only is he the legendary "son of other people", Mr. Thuc is also the Co-founder of VietSeeds, the person behind the achievements that VietSeeds has achieved until today. Let's listen to Mr. Thuc share about his memorable journey!
Q: What does VietSeeds' 10-year milestone mean to you personally?
A: The 10-year milestone marks a long journey and affirms the existence and necessity of any social organization. Throughout that journey, I am always proud and grateful to see the sustainable development of VietSeeds. Each individual in the VietSeeds community always tries their best to rise, devote, contribute and spread the most positive values to society.
Q: In your opinion, what is the most valuable achievement that VietSeeds has achieved on its past journey?
A: I think the most valuable achievement that VietSeeds has achieved in recent times is the credibility, trust and love of many people, from students, volunteers to donors as well as like-minded partners. I am happy because this proves that VietSeeds is on the right path, the seeds have matured and the next seeds continue to grow strongly.
Q: VietSeeds students have learned many valuable lessons from you, so on the other hand, what have you "learned" from Seeds during the time of building the VietSeeds Foundation?
A: Honestly, I always feel like I've received a lot from Seeds. The first is from the positive energy and youthful, optimistic, forward-looking spirit of the children. Next comes the strength to overcome difficulties and tireless efforts to pursue dreams. They have shown us that nothing is impossible, if we have enough passion, determination and know how to take advantage of the opportunities that come our way.
Q: In your opinion, what is the most important skill for a student in the current context?
A: We live in a society with countless changes, epidemics and conflicts that can never be predicted or known for sure. In that context, he believes that adaptive skills are the most important for students. To have good adaptability, you must first prepare yourself with appropriate skills and occupations, know how to save, and learn how to invest long-term and sustainably. You should also build positive, intimate, and meaningful relationships for yourself, especially with the VietSeeds family. These are relationships that can help you become a better version of yourself, and can be a source of support and cooperation when you encounter difficulties. In addition, you should also imagine some situations that may happen in the future so that even if the worst situation happens, you will still be better prepared psychologically, financially and in terms of capacity. .
Q: Please send a few words to your VietSeeds family!
A: I wish the VietSeeds family to always unite, love each other and continue to have steady development. Hopefully we will together nurture generations of creators and social changers, bring positive energy and spread the best values to the community.
